Awkward Age

Late at night

I can see so clearly

They see right through me

And I know that ten years before

I was the kid at the corner store and I still know

And at that age things are so confusing

And no matter what I tried

I still wound up losing. are things still that confusing?

And at that age, that awkward age

I knew someday that things would change

Have I been thinking too much tonight

When I think of how my life's gone by?

And at that age...

There were things that I never really knew

And I keep hearing my parents say:

"Do as I say, don't say as I do."

What could I do?
